Feb 21, 2018This comic is a blast. The action is good, and the drama is great. Donatello is finally getting the attention he deserves, and I feel like his redemption is coming. But don't worry, Batman is getting his moments too. If you're on the fence, catch up. Batman/ Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II is a comic fan's dream. Read Full Review

Feb 23, 2018I just cannot get enough of this story! Even some of the tropes and conveniences that I can see a mile off still seem to entertain. For the Characterization, this book cannot be more dead on. Read Full Review

Black Nerd Problems - Brandon Lawrence
Feb 21, 2018This book glows in no small part because of Williams' art. I look forward to it every month. This fight-heavy issue really lets him fly off the handle with some dazzling action scenes. The gold star of this book is actually the unique use of panel boxes. Several of the panel outlines use a stylistic, non-symmetrical design akin to an ink-covered calligraphy brush. Choices like this make the book dynamic and a treasure to read. Who can be upset when there is an off panel stare-down between Batman and Bane among the chaos? This title continues to be one of the most fun books being created right now and I don't know if I'll survive an entire month before the next one. Read Full Review

Feb 24, 2018There is little I can say that is bad about the writing and artwork, but the plothole and ending giveaway are instant points taken off. Overall Im really enjoying this series and cant wait to see the resolution to this story and what Donatello will do and how in control he can keep himself while on Venom. Read Full Review

The Batman Universe - Paul Shanly
Feb 21, 2018I continue to really enjoy this series. And while I did find this issue a little short, I also have to consider it might also be because I simply wanted more. But seriously DC, stop giving away the end of an issue with the cover. Read Full Review

Feb 22, 2018This miniseries may not match the drama of Tynion's Detective Comics run, it's still a worthwhile crossover for fans of both franchises. Read Full Review

Weird Science - Branden Murray
Feb 21, 2018The series while still mildly enjoyable has just devolved into a series of over long fights, that look great, but don't lead to much actually happening in the issue besides some interesting cliffhangers again. Williams art is always a treat to behold even if Bane is over the top Kiju levels of huge. Read Full Review

Feb 21, 2018Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II #4 injects a mixture of melodrama and poor decision-making into an already Venom-boosted storyline. Read Full Review
